NEWPARK RESOURCES REPORTS NET INCOME OF $0.20 PER DILUTED SHARE FOR THE THIRD QUARTER 2013
Company announces plans to expand mat manufacturing facility
THE WOODLANDS, TX – OCTOBER 24, 2013 – Newpark Resources, Inc. (NYSE: NR) today announced results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2013. Total revenues for the third quarter of 2013 increased 10% to $285.7 million compared to $259.6 million in the third quarter of 2012. Net income for the third quarter of 2013 was $18.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared to $18.7 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2012.
Paul Howes, Newpark’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased with our continued growth, setting another quarterly revenue record in the third quarter. Revenues in our drilling fluids segment rose 10% on a worldwide basis compared to last year’s third quarter. North American revenues increased 9% from a year ago and rose 2% sequentially. International revenues in this segment grew 13% from a year ago, but declined 5% sequentially largely due to expected declines in our EMEA and Asia Pacific regions. Fluid margins were negatively impacted by continued operating losses in completions services, as well as lower margins in the U.S., EMEA and Asia Pacific regions. As previously announced, we have been considering strategic alternatives for our completion services business and are now planning to exit this business. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, we completed the sale of a portion of the assets associated with that business and are currently evaluating offers for the remaining parts of that business.
“Our mats segment had an extremely strong quarter, setting a new record for quarterly revenues. Rental revenues increased 30% from a year ago and 5% sequentially, while mat sales, which were down 21% from the prior year period, roughly doubled on a sequential basis from the prior quarter. Additionally, we are pleased to announce a $40 million expansion of our mats manufacturing facility in Louisiana, which reflects a critical element of our long-term strategy for this business, as we seek to provide innovative solutions to meet our customers’ needs,” added Howes.
Segment Results
The Fluids Systems and Engineering segment generated revenues of $233.0 million in the third quarter of 2013 compared to $211.5 million in the third quarter of 2012, a 10% increase. Segment operating income was $17.1 million (7.4% operating margin) in the third quarter of 2013 compared to $14.8 million (7.0% operating margin) in the third quarter of 2012.
